Editorial

摘要

Welcome to Volume 17 Number 2 (V17N2) of the International Journal of Construction Education and Research. To begin this editorial, there are three items to quickly note. First, we welcome the addition of Dr. Rodolfo Valdes-Vasquez to our editorial team as a guest associate editor. Second, as a reminder for prospective authors, when submitting a manuscript for publication we encourage you to ensure that the paper formatting follows the IJCER style guide found at ascweb.org. This greatly helps facilitate the review and publication process. Finally, I'd like to briefly discuss our 2020 review cycle. This past year our editorial office was kept extremely busy with a record 132 different manuscripts reviewed for publication. We believe that the increase in submittals corresponds with an increasing prominence of the IJCER, especially within the international construction research community. We continue to promote an efficient peer review process, and the average length of time from first submittal to manuscript acceptance was six months. We say thank you to the authors and reviewers for exhibiting a spirit of collegiality during a rigorous peer review process and ultimately helping produce a quality product in a timely manner.
